Industrial Cleaner (Mining Workshop)

You'll do the heavy cleaning at a poultry processing plant in Harrismith, the kind that needs machines, chemicals and training. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

The work is in Harrismith, Free State, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

• Lock out machines before cleaning, as the safety file requires
• Foam, scrub and rinse walls, floors and conveyors with approved chemicals
• Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
• Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
• Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run
• Clear builders' dust, paint and cement off floors and windows after construction
• Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine

• Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work
• Physically strong for wet, heavy work
• Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
• Respect for chemical safety and PPE
• Not scared of heights for window or rope crews
• Willing to work nights and weekends when plants shut down

• Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning
• Paid training on machines and chemicals
• Full PPE: waterproof suits, boots, goggles and respirators

• If you hold a heights or rope access ticket, attach it. It can double what you earn in this line of work.
• Put the machines and chemicals you have used at the top of your CV. Industrial cleaning companies hire on skills, not just willingness.
